Intro Am C (twice)
|
|
(C) Am C
|
As you look into an invisible landscape
|
|
Dm7 C
|
and the waves of time part behind your back
|
|
G
|
As your life crumbles and turns into fiction
|
|
Dm7 C
|
and the end of it becomes a fact
|
|
Am C
|
The ghosts of children will run in your garden
|
|
Dm7 C
|
and play with an imaginary ball
|
|
G
|
You will be released and pardoned
|
|
Dm7 C
|
Now there's nowhere left to fall
|
|
Dm7 C Dm7 C
|
CHORUS Good bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye
|
|
Dm7 (add G) C Dm7 C
|
Now fly fly fly fly fly fly fly fly fly
|
|
|
Am C
|
A steam rises out of the water
|
|
Dm7 C
|
and a mist hangs over the field
|
|
G
|
The tears of your wife and daughter
|
|
Dm7 C
|
have all but released their yield
|
|
Am C
|
The ghosts of lovers will walk toward you
|
|
Dm7 C
|
and beckon you into their arms
|
|
G
|
and the mighty bells of chaos
|
|
Dm7 C
|
will no longer sound their alarms
|
|
CHORUS repeat (plus way way way way way)
|
|
Dm7 G
|
Shake off your carcass leave us in the dark
|
|
C C
|
That's us fumbling 'round like ants on the ground
|
|
Dm7 G
|
in palaces and hovels reading mystery novels
|
|
C C
|
But we never get the plot Maybe you got it now
|
|
Dm7 G
|
Shake that mortal coil leave us to toil
|
|
C C
|
take off that weight take off that weight
|
|
Dm7 G
|
Listen to the silence know the end of violence
|
|
C C
|
is a clean slate Is a clean slate
|
|
CHORUS repeat
|
